There is a lot of stigma attached to depression and anxiety amongst aussie men, despite 1 in 5 battling these illnesses in their lifetime. In this episode, Ash talks through his mental health journey - starting from adjusting to life as a new dad, realising he had a problem, seeking professional help and maintaining his health.
